Re: Ex Dividend date this Thursday "We'll always want sugar even if Beke Off goes to channel 4.'I really don t know what this has got to do with Tate&Lyle as they don't refine (produce) any sugar. Their refining plant in the UK and the brand name of 'Tate&Lyle sugars' has long since been sold to an American company who also bought the Tate&Lyle brand.Tate&Lyle currently have two divisions - bulk and speciality. Bulk are sugar based, but have fewer calories than refined sugar. They are currently primarily used in drinks such as Cola. Speciality products are materials that tasle like sugar, but only have 10% of the calory value of sugar. 2020, the company has the objective of being 70% Speciality and 30% Bulk.So the company is divesting itself of sugar as fast as it can; sugar lovers should look elsewhere.I agree that nobody has told Tate&Lyle's marketing department what the strategy is, but this is just one reason why the shares are being held back.

Ex Dividend date this Thursday 8.2p divi Thursday. Impact ~ 1.2% - better than any bank a/c so if you're thinking of investing here might as well get the yield.TATE up 16% YTD, not bad considering decent divvies on top. We'll always want sugar , even if Bake Off has gone to Channel 4.

Value Had these on the watch list since they were recommended in Moneyweek but I didn't like the PE. in yesterday at 657p as I think the fall is overdone based on fundamentals. the market is not going away. T&L have scale, earn in $ (which has not taken much of a hit vs Sterling). Holding from here and will look again in 12 months.

Election Fallout I guess I must have missed something, did Trump declare he was going to take out sugar importers? Or is there a concern that Tate won't be able to use cheap migrant labour?

Mail- Midas "............... The group is working hard to meet those goals and is paying a decent dividend, so the shares yield about 4 per cent. Most brokers responded positively to the trading statement, expecting profits to rise 17 per cent to £228 million for the year to March 2017, with the dividend up a penny at 29p.Midas verdict: Investors in Tate & Lyle have benefited from the Brexit effect, but the business is also making genuine progress. Existing shareholders should hold. New investors could also consider snapping up a few of these shares for the long term."Read more: [link] Follow us: @MailOnline on Twitter | DailyMail on Facebook
